Cause there's a million ways to be...



Heard this song on the radio a while ago and it kind of stuck with me. It just made me happy to hear it for some reason.


This reminds me of a quote I put up on my wall when I was in university:

"Never be afraid to tread the path alone. Know your path and follow it wherever it may lead you. Do not feel you have to follow in someone else's footsteps."

~Eileen Caddy in "Footprints On The Path"

I think goodness is not in following someone else's lead OR in blazing your own trail but in knowing when in your life it's appropriate to do either one.

I have listened to Cat Stevens for many years but I have never heard this song. And it may be happy to hear it too. You are a wise woman Char. Don't you want to come to Calgary, hang out with me and your cute little boys for a few days?

I totally want to come to Calgary and hang out with you for a few days...but not pregnant. Bonnie, I'm in this writing group now - we're meeting monthly and I really wish you could join us. Do you have a writing group in Calgary?
